    Hey Guys,

    From the past few days, I have seen many players messaging people links to get free 'minecraft capes' from a website online. These links are lies and could harm your computer/laptop.

    On these links might be viruses or scammers online trying to steal your personal information easily as children/teenagers play here. A player called Mobcrier started messaging it to me and many other players and donors. Some players might have been gullible to get one, if you want one, you would need to buy one. Thanks to Leon3ppp he told the server that it was a virus and that no one should open the link.

    Other links are reliable like vote.skyblock.net. If the links that you open are viruses, we are not responsible as you yourself are responsible for what you do online or on your computer.
    Do not open suspicious links that random people message you or say in chat. If it is a link that is a shortened URL, definitely do not open it, you never know what it cou,d have on it.
    This is to protect you and keep you safe.

    If someone does this, report it, and a staff member can/will ban them.

    I hope that none of you had opened the link and I hope that you are all safe.
    Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

    Honestly, any links from people you don't trust should not be clicked.

    I would never click on links that people send.
